The BCS is hosting a one day workshop to get your views on what maps might look like in the future.

Since the computing revolution of the 1980’s and the introduction of the first GIS packages, mapping has fundamentally changed.

Computing power, screen devices, data sharing, survey methods, geo analytics and cartographic tools that exist today could hardly have been dreamt of 40 years ago.

So what will a map be like in 10 years, 20 years or even 30 years time?

We want your vision of the future and help to plan the routemap for getting there.

The UK has a proud tradition of being a global leader in developing mapping and charting for our world. Help us by completing the on line questionnaire and then, if you can, join us for a one day ‘brainstorming’ event where we shall ideas and consider the possibilities. No matter how much it might feel like scince fiction, we know the speed of change will be enormous. Let’s work together to keep the UK at the forefront of geospatial innovation.

This event will be attended by AGI Council Member Richard Flemmings, who will present on the AGI Foresight Report.
